Random thoughts of a free Black mind, v. 199

00-charlescherry2Beyonce & Jay-Z and the Grammy Awards – I don’t know a real husband who would let the world know the grimy details of sex with his wife, brag about what a freak she is on a song in wide release, then let her grind on him half-nekkid on stage for the family and the world to see…”Bad concept, baby! Come up with something else.” That’s what a real man would have said…
Bro. Prez – As we approach year six of eight of the Obama administration, I’m completely over ‘the First Black President’ for reasons I have highlighted here previously. Here are a few.
He refused to enforce existing federal procurement laws assisting Black businesses.
He refused to lock up Wall Street banksters during the 2008 crash, and left money on the table via incompetent administration of federal foreclosure relief programs (similar to how he botched the Obamacare rollout) when Black homeowners were disproportionately foreclosed. He refused to protect small businesspeople against Big Business by enforcing antitrust laws. He helped kill Black-owned radio and TV by not enforcing FCC rules. He’s not supporting Black entrepreneurs in Africa who are in pitched economic battles against the Chinese while America sits and watches.
You don’t need an act of Congress to enforce existing laws designed to give Black business people a fighting chance, OR to get competent people to run programs Congress approved. NO heads have rolled in this incompetent administration other than Van Jones’s and Shirley Sherrod’s – allegedly for embarrassing the president.
Truth be told, I was done in 2009 when in response to a question about 50 percent Black male unemployment in New York City, Obama said, “A rising tide will lift all boats.” In other words, “Y’all Negroes gotta wait.”
If things were this bad for Black America under Dubya, the NAACP, NAN, PUSH, Urban League, et. al would be frothing at the mouth. Their silence tells you all you need to know.
